Coleopteran and Lepidopteran Hosts of the Entomopathogenic Genus Cordyceps sensu lato

Journal of Mycology, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Entomophthoralean and ascomycetous fungi are the two major groups known to parasitize arthropods in almost every terrestrial habitat of the earth. Within Ascomycota, Cordyceps sensu lato is a large genus with more than 400 spp. described on numerous orders of Arthropoda. Among the hosts of Cordyceps, Coleoptera and Lepidoptera are the two major orders.

Skin Reactions to Pine Processionary Caterpillar Thaumetopoea pityocampa Schiff

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
Pine caterpillar, Thaumetopoea pityocampa Schiff, is a phyto‐ and xylophagous lepidopteran, responsible for the delay in the growth or the death of various types of pines. Besides nature damage, pine caterpillar causes dermatological reactions in humans by contact with its irritating larvae hairs.

Plant species richness is key for restoring grassland butterfly assemblages

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
The results indicate that successful restoration of grassland vegetation and butterflies is strongly linked. To fully restore target butterfly assemblages, future grassland restoration should aim to re‐establish and maintain plant species‐rich habitats by implementing high‐quality restoration methods.

Opinion and report of the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (ANSES) relating to an analysis of the health risks associated with exposure to caterpillars with stinging hairs and the development of management recommendations

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Several species of Lepidoptera with caterpillars bearing urticating hairs are increasing their range in metropolitan France from year to year, such as the pine processionary (Thaumetopoea pityocampa Denis et Schiffermüller 1775) whose presence was historically limited to the south of France, and which is gradually being observed in the north ...

Biogeographic Patterns of Iranian Lepidoptera: A Framework for Conservation

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 3, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim The contact zone of three zoogeographic realms, the Palearctic, Saharo‐Arabian and Oriental, is an evolutionary cradle of high species richness and endemism in Iran. In this study, we investigate statistically inferred bioregions of Lepidoptera in this region.

Extensive mismatch between protected areas and biodiversity hotspots of Iranian Lepidoptera

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 17, Issue 6, Page 938-952, November 2024.
Species‐rich regions and areas with higher priority for conservation of Iranian Lepidoptera are mainly restricted to the major mountain ranges in the north and west. We investigated an extensive mismatch between the current network of the protected areas and no‐hunting areas, and the regions prioritized for Lepidoptera conservation within Iran ...

First comprehensive higher level phylogeny of Zygaenidae (Lepidoptera) including estimated ages of the major lineages and a review of known zygaenid fossils

Systematic Entomology, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 610-623, October 2024.
Using 30 gene fragments and sampling nearly 50% of the genera, we provide a well‐resolved phylogeny of Zygaenidae; Zygaenidae are recovered as monophyletic as are most of the subfamilies. The lineage leading to the extant Zygaenidae diverged in Late Cretaceous, while the divergence among the subfamilies occurred a little before the Cretaceous–Paleogene

DNA metabarcoding of light trap samples vs. morphological species identification

Ecological Entomology, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 245-256, April 2024.
Five light trap samples of different complexities were subjected to COI metabarcode sequencing. Species detection rates of metabarcoding versus manual identification were compared between the samples and two different amplicons. Metabarcoding was able to detect between 46% and 69% of manually identified species.
